But We need to have buffered asynchronous mode data transfer from now onwards.

Everthing you wrote prior to that line was 'sales pitch'. It tells us nothing about what help you need.

  • But We need to have: Why? What are you hoping to gain?
  • buffered: Buffered where? (At the client; at the server; both?) Buffered why? (To reduce communications bandwidth? To coalesce adjacent transmissions?
  • asynchronous mode: "mode"?
  • asynchronous ... data transfer: Why? What are you hoping to achieve?
    • Increase throughput?
    • Reduce server latency?
    • Improve client responses?
    • Speed up your testing cycles?
    • Saturation test your servers without requiring dozens of physical test clients?
    • Allow you to add the "asynchronous" keyword to your adverts so as to stack up better against your commercial rivals?
    • Avoid having to employ more testers?

Unless you can answer the questions above without asking your manager or mentor, you are probably the wrong person to be tackling the project.

And is that from now onwards, the now when you posted; or the now when I read it? :)

On a more serious note. If you are under pressure to try and complete this by some prescribed deadline, despite that you do not yet have a good idea how you are going to so, then you should seriously consider taking the project back to your management and telling them to ...

In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.
